Chapter 555: Breaking the Old and Establishing the New (1)
In the early morning of the next day, on the order of Luo Tianjin, the owners of the Xianwang Mansion gathered in the middle hall to wait for the discussion.
Interestingly, there are not only the Xian Wangfu family members here today, but also two outsiders, Yeluqin and Xunqin.
In the middle hall, groups of three or five are talking and laughing.
Liu Xunyi's eyes have been staring closely at Xun Qin, who was whispering to Yeluqin, his face was cloudy, and there was a thick gloomy atmosphere lingering between his eyebrows.
As if sensing Liu Xunyi's strange gaze, Xun Qin suddenly turned his beautiful eyes, and a pair of sparkling apricot eyes looked straight at Liu Xunyi, and at the same time slowly got up, and under the stunned gaze of others, he walked towards him.
"Liu Zhifan, I haven't seen you for many days, don't come unharmed?"
"Thanks to Miss Xunqin's concern, everything is fine in the future. ”
Seeing Liu Xunyi get up to greet him, Qin Ku, Ling Qing, and Xu Heng, who were sitting on the side, got up one after another, but Luo Ningyu didn't move, but his face showed disdain, and at the same time, a trace of vinegar flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Xun Qin turned his gaze, looked at Qin Ku, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the famous 'ghost to see sorrow' to worship in the Xianwang Mansion, and ...... Willing to succumb to others, I don't know whether to congratulate or regret. ”
There were words in Xun Qin's words, which made Qin Ku's expression a little embarrassed.
In fact, when Xun Qin saw Qin Ku for the first time in the Xianwang Mansion, he had already guessed Liu Xunyi's expression when he saw him, why was he so "bitter and hateful"?
The truth is as Xun Qin expected, Liu Xunyi has learned from Qin Ku's mouth that the initiator of deceiving the "Xuanshui Volume" from Shaolin is Xun Qin.
seemed to be quite curious about Liu Xunyi's strange expression that he wanted to say and stopped, Xun Qinwan smiled, and said: "I haven't seen you for a few days, has Liu Zhifan forgotten me?"
"Of course not. ”
"If that's not the case, why does Liu Zhifan keep staring at me......? You and I meet in the water?"
"It's nonsense to meet in Pingshui, it's just that it's ......" Liu Xunyi looked closely at Xun Qin, who was smiling like a flower, and said secretly, "I thought that I was already friends with Miss Xun Qin, but unexpectedly, when I saw it today, I suddenly realized that you and I were so strange." ”
"What do you mean?" Xun Qin's gaze glanced at Qin Ku, and said with a smile, "Why did you become so twisted when you went to Huashan......?"
"Frank and?" Liu Xunyi scoffed and sneered, "These words came out of the mouth of Miss Xunqin, I don't know if it was sarcasm or self-mockery?"
In the face of Liu Xunyi's interrogation, Xun Qin smiled silently, and only stared at Liu Xunyi, who was half-vomiting and half-swallowing, with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Seeing this scene, Luo Ningyu finally couldn't hold back the resentment in her heart, and suddenly got up, wanting to accuse Xun Qin.
"The lord of the mansion has arrived!"
However, before Luo Ning could speak, Luo Tianjin had already strode into the hall accompanied by Ling Xiaoxiao.
"Meet the Mansion Master!"
"I've seen the Lord of the Luo League!"
As soon as they saw Luo Tianjin, everyone got up one after another and bowed to Luo Tianjin.
"Lord Ning made this big gift, Luo is ashamed!"
Luo Tianjin turned a blind eye to others, walked quickly to Ye Luqin, and apologized: "Let Prince Ning wait for a long time, Luo deserves to die......
"Huh!" While Luo Tianjin was about to make a move, Yeluqin hurriedly held it with both hands and said humbly, "The lord of Luofu is going to torture this king, please take a seat." ”
"Lord Ning, please!"
While talking and laughing, the two joined hands like close friends, rolled up their sleeves, complimented each other and sat down together.
"Let me introduce you to a friend. Luo Tianjin stretched out his hand and waved at Yeluqin, and said loudly, "This is the prince Ning of Daliao, the brother of the king of Shaoqin, and the distinguished guest of my Xian Wangfu. ”
"I've seen Lord Ning!"
Out of courtesy, everyone in the Xianwang Mansion bowed their hands to Yeluqin.
"Da Liao is dead, King Ning is just a false name, and it is really not worth it. Yeluqin said with a smile, "This time I came to the Central Plains, and it was really an honor to see the world-renowned martial arts alliance masters, as well as the heroes and heroes who shook the rivers and lakes, and it was worth the trip." ”
"From now on, Prince Ning and Miss Xun Qin will officially become the guests of King Xian's Mansion. In the future, they will be a family and take care of each other in times of trouble, and they must no longer be regarded as outsiders. ”
"Shhh
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.
Especially Liu Xunyi, in addition to shock, there was a trace of confusion in his heart.
As everyone knows, the term "curtain guest" mostly refers to the strategists and diners cultivated by officials, and few people in the rivers and lakes mention it. Even if people in the martial arts like to gather talents, they will not use the words of "curtain guests", but use the words of "fellow believers" and "righteous people".
Today, Luo Tianjin's words were amazing, and he actually recruited Yeluqin and Xun Qin into the Xianwang Mansion as "curtain guests". The meaning is more than just a misstatement.
At this time, Xie Xuan's face was extremely ugly, and an indescribable entanglement lingered between his eyebrows.
On the other hand, after hearing the word "curtain guest", a touch of relief and joy appeared in his eyes. He knew that although Luo Tianjin did not say it, he had actually secretly born the heart of the emperor, and he thought that his bitter words last night were not in vain.
"What are you doing?" Luo Tianjin's face sank, and he said unhappily, "Didn't you hear what I just said?"
Seeing that Luo Tianjin was angry, everyone's frightened faces changed, and they hurriedly gave up their hands to receive the order: "Obey the orders of the mansion master." ”
"Hmm!" Luo Tianjin nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Gossip, in fact, I summoned you today because there are two things I want to discuss with you. ”
After that, Luo Tianjin's gaze turned towards Xie Xuan, Xie Xuan understood when he arrived, and said loudly: "The first thing, the roster of people from all factions in the martial arts has been put away now, and now it is necessary to verify them one by one, register them, and distribute Jianghu tokens." Because of the importance of the matter, the government mainly handed over the errands such as verification, registering, and making tokens to careful and reliable people for a period of one month. I wonder if any of you would like to take on this role?"
Hearing this, everyone in the hall couldn't help but think about it and looked at each other.
It's not that they don't want to take on errands, but because they are big and cumbersome, and they can't be easily accomplished with a single passion.
After a while, Luo Qi and Su Tang got up at the same time to ask for help.
Luo Tianjin groaned slightly, and said with a straight face: "This errand will be handed over to Shangsanmen to do." We must be cautious and careful, and never make the slightest mistake or omission, so as not to provoke the ridicule of the heroes of the world. ”
"Yes!"
Su Tang was overjoyed, in stark contrast to Luo Qi, who was looking lost on the side.
"The details of the Jianghu token, not only the sect and name, but also some other changes, I will tell you later. Luo Tianjin said for no reason, and turned to Xie Xuan and said, "Brother Xie, go on!"
"The second thing, the lord of the mansion wants to add the head of the Wudang faction, Qingfeng, and the patriarch of the Teng clan in Xiangxi, Teng Sanshi, as the deputy leader of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance, and take care of all the affairs of the rivers and lakes for the lord of the mansion, especially the sects and families south of Qinhuai, I want to hear your opinions today. ”
"Seal the deputy alliance leader?" Huang Yulang frowned and said bluntly, "This matter is unheard of, rare in ancient and modern times, I'm afraid it ...... There is a loss of decency. ”
That's not true. Yeluqin waited for an opportunity to speak, "The so-called 'system' is just a means for the superior to dominate the lower. Although the Great Liao is dead, the former emperor's strategy still exists in the contempt clan, so this king is well versed in it. As far as the Central Plains martial arts are concerned, abiding by the system is what the martial arts factions and the heroes of the rivers and lakes should do. As for the leader of the martial arts alliance, what should be done is not to 'abide by' the system, but to 'formulate' the system. ”
"That's good!" Deng Changchuan was enthusiastic and clapped his hands again and again.
"I agree. "The wild goose will not return," the martial arts alliance leader should have the domineering and majestic spirit of the martial arts alliance leader, how can he be compared with ordinary heroes in the rivers and lakes? Moreover, the southern factions have always been close to Jin Jianwu, and they are not distempered with us, and they are even hostile to us. Although the lord of the mansion is already the leader of the martial arts alliance and is supported by the heroes, after all, the people's hearts are not ancient, and it is inevitable that there will be people who are duplicitous. Therefore, if there are no two deputy alliance leaders who are close to the pinch, and only rely on the power of the Xianwang Mansion, even if someone plots against us, we will not be able to reach it. Over time, they don't take the mansion master seriously, once the majesty of the martial arts alliance leader is gone, sooner or later they will exist in name only and become a laughing stock. ”
"If you think about it carefully, Qingfeng Dao Chang and Teng Patriarch are both seniors in the rivers and lakes, and they are all leaders in the rivers and lakes in terms of qualifications, prestige, martial arts, and character. Murong Bai groaned, "If the two of them serve as the deputy alliance leaders, it must be the desire of the people, and no one should be unconvinced." ”
"I have pondered this matter carefully, in fact, the most prestigious Taishan Beidou in the rivers and lakes is none other than Master Xuanming of Shaolin. Luo Tianjin said faintly, "However, Master Xuanming is an outsider, and he has always rarely interfered with the disturbances of the world, so I expect him to refuse." Thinking about it, in addition to Master Xuanming, the most prestigious person in the rivers and lakes is undoubtedly the Qingfeng Dao Chief. As for the old hero Teng, his temperament is well known, and he has always been at odds with me, so he can also block the mouth of Youyou, save the gossip of others, and say that I am nepotistic. ”
"The lord of the mansion has made every effort and acted thoroughly, I admire him!" Luo Qi complimented.
"Yulang, what do you think?"
After pondering for a moment, Huang Yulang arched his hand and said: "The lord of the mansion is old and new, and he knows how to change, but I am rigid in my rules and regulations, and I don't know how to change." I mean...... It is wise for the deputy leader to consolidate his authority and restrain the others. ”
"Okay!" Luo Tianjin said with satisfaction, "Since everyone has no objections, this matter is settled." Yulang, you have always handled things safely, and this matter will be handled by you. ”
"Under the command!"
Xie Xuan looked around at everyone and said loudly: "The big thing has been decided, today is over, you ......"
"Wait a minute!" Luo Tianjin suddenly spoke, "There is one more thing, I also want to hear your thoughts." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Please make it clear. ”
"In the past, there were six major sects, four great families and four pagan religions, the north and the south were separated, good and evil fought against each other, and each dominated one side. But after the battle of Huashan, the dead and wounded, the pattern of martial arts was undoubtedly completely broken. Luo Tianjin said unhurriedly, "There are pros and cons to everything, and the turbulence of the times is certainly a disaster, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for us." Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to establish order, reshape the pattern of rivers and lakes, and create a ...... New martial arts. ”
